Setup Instructions for the Canon DR-5020 and DR-5080C
A. Set Up the Scanner and Driver
The following steps need only be performed once. These steps simply set up the scanner for use. If the scanner is already installed and working properly, you may skip this section. 1. Prepare your Canon DR-5020 (black and white model) or DR-5080C (color scanning model) scanner for use by following the directions in Chapters 1 and 2 of the DR5020/5080C Instructions booklet. You will need to provide your own SCSI card and cable, since these items are not included with the scanner. 2. Turn on the scanner. The power button is located in the lower front left of your scanner. Note: You must always turn on this scanner before you turn on your computer, or the computer will not find the scanner. 3. Follow the directions in chapters 1 and 2 of the ISIS/TWAIN Driver Instructions booklet. This will show you how to install the necessary software drivers for your Canon DR-5020 or DR-5080C. For updated drivers (in case of problems), please go to the Canon homepage located at: http://www.usa.canon.com. Under Support, select Drivers and Downloads. Download and install the appropriate TWAIN driver.
B. Set Up WYNN
The following steps need only be performed once. These steps set up WYNN for you to use with the Canon DR-5020 or DR-5080C scanner. 1. With the scanner and computer on, launch WYNN. 2. Choose Scanner Selection from the Advanced menu. Verify that the correct scanner is selected. If not, select it from the list. • For DR-5020: There should be an entry for "Canon DR-5020." Select that. If it is not listed, select “Unknown Twain using: Canon DR-5020 TWAIN" or download the latest Twainscn.ini file from the Freedom Scientific Website (ftp://ftp.freedomscientific.com/users/hj/private/twainscn.ini). • For DR-5080C: Select the entry for “Unknown Twain using: Canon DR-5080C TWAIN." 3. Still in the Scanner Selection dialog, in the TWAIN Properties area, verify that none of the three check boxes is selected. Then click OK to exit this dialog and save changes. 4. Choose Scanning Settings from the Settings menu. You will do two things here. a. Change the Scanning Contrast to “Normal Contrast." b. Specify whether you are scanning color documents.
• •
For DR-5020: Verify that the Color Scanning check box is not selected, then click OK. For DR-5080C: If you want to retain color in color pages, select the Color Scanning checkbox, then click OK. Otherwise, uncheck this item. Note that color scanning takes significantly longer than black-and-white scanning, so it is better to leave this item unchecked unless you need color.
5. Save these settings. You must save these scanning settings to make them available for future sessions. If this will be your primary scanner, you should make these settings part of the Default settings file. To do this, choose Save Settings from the Settings menu and choose Default as the settings file name. Answer Yes when asked whether you want to overwrite the existing file. Note: If this will not be your primary scanner, you should create a different settings file that you will load each time you want to use the scanner. In that case, type a new name, such as Canon DR5020 Scanner, for the settings file. When you are ready to use the scanner, select Retrieve Settings from the Settings menu and select that settings file.
C. Activate the Front Panel of the Scanner
If you will always be using WYNN or TestTalker with this scanner, the following steps need only be performed once. They will activate the front panel of your scanner so you can use the buttons. If you will be using more than one kind of scanning software with your Canon high-speed scanner, you may need to follow the steps below when you switch scanning applications. 1. Turn on the scanner, then the computer, then launch WYNN. 2. Place one page in the document feeder. 3. In WYNN, press the Scan button on the WYNN toolbar. WYNN will scan the front side of the page, then bring up a dialog box asking what to do next. Choose "Done Scanning," then let WYNN process the page. Wait until this processing is done before proceeding to the next step. 4. This first scan creates a file in your Windows directory called Setscan.ini. The file will be in the C:\WINDOWS directory (in Windows 95, 98, XP, or Me operating systems) or C:\WINNT directory (in Windows NT or 2000 operating systems). You can use Windows Explorer to find that file. If you are unfamiliar with using Windows Explorer to locate files, you can right-click on the Windows directory and choose Find or Search, then type the filename: Setscan.ini. When you have found the file, double-click on it to open it with Notepad, then proceed to the next step.
Note: Depending on your particular Windows settings, the file extension (or even the entire file) may be hidden. To change this, open Windows Explorer and choose Folder Options from the Tools menu. Click the View tab and select Show Hidden Files and Folders (this item might be worded slightly differently depending on your operating system). In addition, uncheck the Hide Extensions for Known File Types checkbox (this also might be worded differently). Click Apply to All Folders and then click OK. Now you will be able to locate the file following the directions in Step 4. 5. Change the line near the bottom of the file that says "FrontPanel=0" to "FrontPanel=1", and save the file, then exit Notepad.
D. Configure the Front Panel Buttons
If you are scanning two-sided documents, you can take advantage of the Duplex feature included in the Canon DR-5020. To do this, you will need to set up the Simplex/Duplex feature by changing some items on the scanner's front panel. Note: If you are using the Canon DR-5080C, you cannot use the scanner's Duplex feature. Instead, you will use WYNN's built-in Duplex feature. Follow the instructions below only if you have the Canon DR-5020 (the black-and-white model). 1. Press the Simplex/Duplex button to select single-sided scanning (Simplex) or double-sided scanning (Duplex). 2. Set the other front panel buttons as follows: All other lights on the front panel should be OFF except for Text, the lights around and immediately below the contrast adjustment scale, the illuminated page-counting numbers, and the red light in the middle of the large green button. Note: On the front panel of your DR-5020, do not use any other buttons except the ones listed above. If any other lights are on, it is very important to press their associated buttons until they are off before scanning with WYNN. Note: Do not change the contrast using the front panel contrast buttons, as this will be overridden by the scanning contrast specified in WYNN. Your Canon DR-5020 should now be ready for use!
E. How to Do a Batch Scan Using WYNN
When you do batch scanning, you scan all the pages first, then WYNN processes the pages in a single operation. This processing may take some time, but it is entirely automated. This is the ideal way to use WYNN with the Canon DR-5020 and 5080C scanner.
Note that the instructions for double-sided scanning differ depending on whether you are using the Canon 5020 or the 5080C scanner. Single-sided Scanning: When doing a batch scan of single-sided pages: 1. Set the Simplex/Duplex button: Set the scanner's Simplex/Duplex button to Simplex (single-sided). 2. Begin scanning: Place a stack of pages on the scanner and press WYNN's Scan button (make sure you are using Large Batch scanning mode, per the instructions in Section B, Steps 4 and 5). 3. To add more pages: When the stack is through, WYNN will present you with a dialog box asking you if you want to add more pages, turn pages over, process the pages, etc. If you have more pages to scan, put those pages on the scanner and then choose "Add more pages." 4. To process the pages: When all the pages are scanned, select "Done scanning" from the dialog box and WYNN will analyze all the pages and create a WYNN file with them. Double-sided Scanning using the DR-5020 scanner: When doing a batch scan of double-sided pages using the DR-5020 model, you can take advantage of the scanner's Duplex mode, which scans both sides of the pages in one pass: 1. Set the Simplex/Duplex button: Set the scanner's Simplex/Duplex button to Duplex (double-sided). 2. Begin scanning: Place a stack of pages on the scanner and press WYNN's Scan button (make sure you are using Large Batch scanning mode, per the instructions in Section B, Steps 4 and 5). 3. To add more pages: When the stack is through, WYNN will present you with a dialog box asking you if you want to add more pages, turn pages over, process the pages, etc. If you have more pages to scan, put those pages on the scanner and then choose "Add more pages." Important: Do not select "Turn pages over," because the Duplex feature of the Canon DR-5020 does this for you. It scans both sides during the first pass. 4. To process the pages: When all the pages are scanned, select "Done scanning" from the dialog box and WYNN will analyze all the pages and create a WYNN file with them.
Double-sided Scanning using the DR-5080C scanner: When doing a batch scan of double-sided pages using the DR-5080C model, you will use WYNN's duplex capabilities. The 5080C always uses Simplex mode with WYNN, so WYNN must handle the duplex functionality itself. To do this: 1. Set the Simplex/Duplex button: Set the scanner's Simplex/Duplex button to Simplex (single-sided). 2. Begin scanning: Place a stack of pages on the scanner and press WYNN's Scan button (make sure you are using Large Batch scanning mode, per the instructions in Section B, Steps 4 and 5). 3. To add more pages: When the stack is through, WYNN will present you with a dialog box asking you if you want to add more pages, turn pages over, process the pages, etc. If you have more pages to scan, put those pages on the scanner and then choose "Add more pages." 4. To scan the backs of the pages: When you have scanned the fronts of all the pages, it's time to turn the pages over and scan the backs. Physically turn the pages over so that the backside of the last page will get scanned first. Then select "Turn pages over" from the dialog box. If you have multiple batches, WYNN will prompt you after each batch that there are more pages to scan. Add those pages and continue. 5. To process the pages: When all the pages are scanned, select "Done scanning" from the dialog box. WYNN will analyze all the pages and create a WYNN file with them.
F. Troubleshooting
1. If you are using other scanning programs with the Canon DR-5020 or 5080C scanner, including Canon's Scanning Utility 5000, you may need to check the scanning settings before beginning each scanning session. In particular, be sure to check to see whether Color Scanning is On of Off. This item can be reset in the Setscan.ini file by other scanning programs. 2. If you are having trouble getting the scanner to work properly, you may want to try reinstalling the scanning software. Before reinstalling you should first delete Pixcache.ini and Setscan.ini from the \WINDOWS or \WINNT directory (depending on your Operating System). Be sure to modify Setscan.ini again, as described earlier in this document.
